I have created a class of type Base36, and am coding the type conversion functions. Is there a benifit to implementing IConvertible, or should I define out my type conversions using static implicit/explicit operators?
public static implicit operator long(Base36 value) { return value.NumericValue; } Edit: I guess I am also looking for what each method provides to me. What is the difference?
The correct answer is, you should provide both, if you feel it’s worth the effort and the benefit.
